Another WIP for this drawing? The woman that's going to be buying this is really interested in the drawing process, so she wants me to get as many WIP scans of this as possible. She wants her little daughter to draw when she's older I dunno if following my footsteps will be helpful, but we'll see.

So yes, I reverted back to black and white in this scan. I can't decide which I like better now. In real life, the antique tint looks AWESOME on it. But of course scans ruins some aspects, like the tint. So blegh, can't choose.

In here, I suppose I did some really subtle refinement. Just trying to emphasize the important parts a bit more. But I'll admit, what I did to the lips in this WIP wasn't subtle I tried to invert the colors of the reference and the scan (really great way to fix shading, by the way) and noticed that the lips in my drawing were not dark enough. Mine were kind of...undefined.

And I know the teeth are bad. I've always had problems with them, and apparently never gotten over them Hopefully I can make them look a bit better soon.

And yup, still going with the gloves, arm, body, hair, neck, and necklace...The shaded parts for the hair is going to (for themost part) stay the way it is. From the neck down, and the gloves, is subject to a lot of change. I'm aware that they are looking extremely sup-par at the moment, and am keeping that in mind

And I just realized the eyes are too big Three months into it. Methinks it's a bit too late to be fixing it, though But the person buying it likes it the way I've done it, so yay!

And try to ignore the stains. Unless if you're some coffee expert. If so, then you may go indulge your inquisitive nature into the questioning and hypothesizing of the particular brand of coffee that was consumed during the making of this picture

.....big pause to respect the artwork. Are you really 15?!!!! You are sensationally talented and I honestly wish I had half of your talent. This picture is stunning too. I love the way that you draw eyes. You should do a tutorial.

Very lovely. Your proportions are good except maybe the eyes are a little on the large side but that is something I am often guilty of as well as that is the first thing that really attracts me to a woman. Some areas like the lips and the cloth could use a little more texture and they have this painted on look to them, not saying they are bad just saying they are not fitting with the rest of the picture.

To be honest, the eyes don't look that big, and the reference you used ... the way you drew it looks just as good. The shoulder is too close to the eye, but you can't tell as much because it's cropped--

why on earth u think u need help from is boggling to my mind. This is exquisite! Why on earth is it only in scraps? Its classic Hepburn- you can tell instantly that the portrait is of here- she's got realistic tones, and the shading is nothing short of miracioulous! I love it, yr taltent here is superior.

(indulge your inquisitive nature into the questioning and hypothesizing of the particular brand of coffee that was consumed during the making of this picture ) I sorta laughed at that.The eyes arn't too big! the eyes I draw are too big!

Thanks! It's nice to know someone appreciates them I feel like everyone's losing interest in this, since they ssee it so much FYI, it's going to be in my scraps from now on. Or in it's own folder in my gallery

I decided on both, anyway. The reason it's in my scraps (besides the already mentioned) is that I discovered there's a category for WIPs, but asdefault it goes into the scraps gallery. I don't see what the point in making sub-cats in scraps is, since it's not labeled anything different. Jus "scraps" But I figured it'd be a miscat, so might as well shove it there
